🤔 Is your dog treat motivated, toy motivated, affection motivated, or something else? 🐶
My girl Nia is 1000% treat motivated! She is like a hoover with food😂 even medication makes a tasty treat in her eyes👀
What about your dog? Let us know in the comments below👇
🐶 There are two types of reactive dog owners that go about their daily life: 🐶
The ones that suffer in silence look a little something like this:
👎 Dreading walking their dogs or simply avoid walks altogether
👎 Taking their dogs out at early hours or late at night to avoid triggers & stressing where to walk your dog
👎 Feeling overwhelmed & frustrated with your dog or feeling like your getting no where even when your trying your best
👎 To scared to ask for support because people judge you & don’t fully understand how hard & isolating having a reactive dog is
👎 Lost all confidence in yourself as an owner and don’t know where to turn or how things will get better?
Then there’s the ones that have have reactive dogs & life looks great. Getting those wins & enjoying their walks & life together that look a little like this:
🙌 Owners have their confidence back & a sense of direction
🙌 Getting those lie ins & relaxing nights back, having a relaxed family life
🙌 The owners love taking their dogs out for a walk & can’t wait for the next one
🙌 Dogs that can see a trigger, not react & can easily disengage and focus back on you, the owner
🙌 Having the tools to use subconsciously, making your dogs life more enjoyable. Most importantly strengthening you & your dog’s relationship
Which sounds most like you right now?
If you feel like you belong in the first group and you're determined to do something about that, we get you and we've got you! 🤗

TOP TIP FRIDAY!
One of the biggest mistakes I made before becoming a dog trainer, was engagement - or back then - lack of engagement😕
Nia is a fear reactive dog and one of her biggest triggers is her fixation with dogs and I couldn’t grab her attention at all, she was so distracted and I simply wasn’t interesting enough for her. With the lack of focus she had with me caused her to ignore me, resulting in her reacting more by focusing on her triggers. This was impacting our reactive training in a negative way and was effectively doing nothing in the way of helping her with her training.
This is why engagement is so important to help improve you & your dog’s relationship. Nowadays you’ll rarely see a dog on a walk checking in with their owner or knowing how to disengage from triggers. Working on your engagement will hugely affect your training & in a positive way. Your dog will become less distracted on walks, will stop ignoring you and looking for anything to occupy themselves with. Let’s take recall for example - simply by working on your engagement will make recall training a lot easier as your dog will choose to check in with you through there own choice. Our dogs offer us engagement every single day it’s us as owners that cause lack of engagement because we don’t reward it. You can reinforce engagement throughout the whole day. Any time the dog looks at you, you mark and reward. Yes it really is that simple to do!🙌 Engagement is something that you should work on throughout your whole dogs life - it’s never to late to start.
How often do you reinforce engagement? Do you notice when your dog offers it voluntarily🤔
Thank you to all our current members and previous members for a great 2022. Helping you dog’s build confidence has been a dream come true and we for one can’t wait for 2023. Hope everyone has a fantastic Christmas and we will see everyone in the new year🎄

Hi everyone! I have unfortunately taken the decision to cancel tomorrow’s class. This is due to the weather warnings for both snow & wind. We might be lucky and miss it but looking at the weather yesterday and this morning is doesn’t look likely. Sorry for any inconvenience caused but we need to think about safety of travel due to snow or ice.
Due to this, your payments for March will either be reduced or I will add in a extra lesson on a Sunday in March to cover this missing class, either on the 6th or 27th March. You can let me know what you prefer and we will see everyone as normal Friday 25th February🐶

Do any of our followers have nervous dogs? Specifically dogs that struggle to walk on the lead?
Well here’s a little bit of hope for you! Proof that nervy dogs can walk nicely on the lead and enjoy their walk. This took a lot of training but so worth it ❤️
Here are my top tips for combatting nervousness whilst out walking…
🐕 Keep your walks roughly the same length each time. Dogs like routine!
You can then add time on once your dog feels comfortable.
🐕 Let your dog explore, but make sure you’re there with lots of encouragement!
🐕 Create positive associations with anything your dog is fearful of.
🐕 Try and go on walks with other dogs who are confident and who your dog is familiar with!
